Title:

Recommended voltages for HVDC grids

This technical brochure provides guidance for system planners and designers to choose the optimal DC voltage for High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) grids. This includes a clear technical definition for the “DC voltage” in line with current practices and standards, a list of recommended values based on technical considerations and drivers from system planning, and a flowchart to guide the selection of the optimal voltage for individual projects.
